From the 17th to the 18th centuries, Catholic Europe was consumed by the controversy over the Chinese Rites to Confucius and the ancestors. In China, the Jesuits had decided that these were civil rather than religious and could therefore be ‘accommodated’. In 1704, however, Pope Clement XI had declared them as superstitious and therefore incompatible with Christianity, a decision which the Jesuits fiercely contested. The Lazzarist, Teodorico Pedrini (1671-1746), was sent by Propaganda Fide to enforce Catholic orthodoxy. Almost 2000 pages of his correspondence reveal the extraordinary lengths to which the Jesuits went to thwart the papal rulings. To silence him, they imprisoned him in their house in Beijing, bringing him close to death. He was finally released on the orders of the new Yongzheng Emperor. Pedrini’s writings cast an entirely new perspective on the events leading up to the proscription of the preaching of Christianity in China in 1724.

Il volume pubblica l’edizione critica del dossier testamentario di Teodorico Borgognoni, un gruppo di sette documenti redatti tra la prima metà del 1277 e la fine del 1298. Tra questi spiccano il testamento del 17 ottobre 1298, nel quale il chirurgo, vescovo di Cervia, dispone del suo vasto patrimonio, e un documento in forma di rotolo contenente le dichiarazioni giurate di un gruppo di testimoni (dicta testium). Si tratta di un poderoso documento di 31 carte, cucite insieme a formare un rotolo di 22 metri, rimasto finora inedito. Nelle sedi del tribunale ecclesiastico bolognese, su esplicita richiesta di Teodorico, i testi vengono interrogati su 38 quesiti riguardanti modi e tempi di acquisizione e gestione del suo patrimonio. Sono carte che permettono di ricostruire tanti aspetti della vita privata e professionale di un personaggio assoluto protagonista del suo tempo.Le relazioni, gli incontri, gli affari, le esperienze di vita narrati in questi documenti delineano il profilo di un uomo che ha incarnato appieno la vivacità culturale e la rinnovata sensibilità giuridica tipiche del Duecento italiano. Il volume, arricchito da una prefazione di Michael McVaugh, completa idealmente il percorso avviato dagli studi pubblicati in Teoria e pratica medica nel basso Medioevo. Teodorico Borgognoni vescovo, chirurgo, ippiatra, a cura di Francesca Roversi Monaco (Micrologus Library 99).

Theoderich der Große (um 453-526) gehört zu den faszinierendsten Herrschergestalten der Völkerwanderungszeit. Wie kein anderer Germanenkönig beeindruckte und polarisierte der Ostgote seine Mit- und Nachwelt. Die Urteile schwanken zwischen Verklärung als idealer Herrscher und Verdammung als Tyrann und häretischer Verfolger. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht erstmals systematisch und übergreifend das vielgestaltige Bild Theoderichs in der byzantinischen und westlichen Überlieferung von den zeitgenössischen Anfängen bis ins 9. Jahrhundert. Behandelt werden nicht nur literarische Zeugnisse, sondern aussagekräftige Quellen wie Inschriften, Münzen oder der Umgang mit Bildwerken und Bauten des Ostgotenkönigs finden ebenfalls Berücksichtigung. Andreas Goltz ordnet die zeitlich und regional höchst unterschiedlichen Darstellungen und Bewertungen Theoderichs in ihren gattungsspezifischen, überlieferungsgeschichtlichen und zeithistorischen Kontext ein, analysiert die Motive und Hintergründe für die verschiedenartigen Sichtweisen auf den Ostgotenkönig und trägt auf diese Weise maßgeblich zum Verständnis Theoderichs, seiner Zeit und seiner Wirkungsgeschichte bei.
